Adventurers seek to slay a nine headed hydra that has unleashed a myriad of monsters into the world. This game contains tiles, chits, cards and dice. Players win the game by either defeating the lead nine headed hydra and/or the head vampiress. The game is lost when all tiles are placed unless using the optional rule for infinite enemies. To defeat all of the monsters, the players can gather weapons from the item deck by buying them at a shop or by using spells from the spell deck. Some items can also be found when defeating enemies.
